The True Story of the Greatest Relic of Antiquity
This is a story of political intrigue as well as spiritual longing, a tale of princes as well as priests and prophets, of holy wars and shrines from Palestine to Arabia and the highlands of Africa. It is a history of the struggle to claim the legacy of Sinai and Zion, the covenants that God made with the patriarchs of kings of Israel. It depicts the bitter rivalries that have endured across thousands of years. This book reveals the devotion to the Ark at the court of Charlemagne, and the obsession with the Temple and the kings of Israel among both Protestants and Catholics during the Reformation.
